Adding "Generate from template" button to sales order line grid on form "SalesTable"

(0) ShareShare

Hi

On the "SalesTable" form, there is a button entitled "Generate from template".  I understand this button looks for templates that have a primary table of SalesTable.

I would like to add a button to the action pane that sits about the sales line grid that looks for a primary table of SalesLine.

The steps I have followed so far:

I copied the button "mbTemplatesButton" from the sales order header to the Action Pane Tab above the sales line grid.  I changed the name of the two buttons to "mbTemplatesButtonSalesLine" and "DocuActionTemplateUndefinedSalesLine".

I added this code to the "classDeclaration" method:

boolean isDocuActionTemplateSalesLine;  

I added this code to the "init" method:

isDocuActionTemplateSalesLine = 
        DocuActionForTemplate::createTemplateOnMenuButton(
                    mbTemplatesButtonSalesLine, salesLine.TableId); 


And this to the "run" method:

docuActionTemplateUndefinedSalesLine.visible(
                 !isDocuActionTemplateSalesLine);


What I am finding is that the "Generate from template" button on the header disappears!

And the "No templates defined" still appears when I click my new button, but my document template I have already created and configured does appear correctly.

What am I doing wrong!?

Many thanks in advance
